Hi all,

Watching Woodlands vs Tampines is like watching a kampung game, an inter-town league game at best. But playing against Malaysian States, who hates all-thing Singapore with a burning passion, we have some real rivalry to speak of.

And I guess we are all looking forward to that one. Only with a strong rivalry and an intense hatred for the other team, will supporters feel a sense of belonging and thumps their chest for every goal and victory.

Totally agree!

Kelantan v Singapore MSL 10 Jan 2012 match. Anybody bought tickets for that match? Think most of Singapore will be tuned in for the match. I hope Singapore wins against Kelantan. But than, as a Selangor guy and supporter, I hope Singapore wins against any other state sides except when it comes to Selangor. Selangor will as usual wipe Singapore out!

But regarding that Selangor thing, nah... We'll up the ante ourselves when we are playing against you! If the Sultan of Selangor Cup results are to mean anything, you guys have to really watch out for us.

Seriously, this is THE MATCH all LionsXII's fans is looking forward to. Most Singaporeans still regard Selangor as the Archrival, a worthy opponent of the Lions.


If you look at the Malaysia Cup winners up to 1994, Selangor won 27 times whilst Singapore won 24 times. So, overall, Selangor is still better! But roll on the latest Malaysia Cup final. Hope to see Selangor v Singapore in that. Now that will be something to see!

As for the Sultan of Selangor Cup, well, that's a pale imitation of the proper Malaysia Cup. It doesn't have the passion or heat of a proper Malaysia Cup derby between Selangor and Singapore!

The other thing, they should not allow immunity to Singapore against relegation. Not only is it unfair to the other teams but also to Singapore itself. It's the threat of failure and relegation that spurred Singapore to the double in 1994 after being relegated in 1993! Nothing taste sweeter than victory after defeat!
